to appear at hfs desk at the usual hour. His
absence WAS not much noticed until after
noon when he was still missing. Inquiry at
his residence on Powelton avenue, where he
hes Q wife, showed that he had not been
home, and an examination OF the books Of
the company was then instituted. Several
small deficits were at first found, and each
page showed that more and larger sums had
been embeZZled.
Up to late Sunday night Paying Teller Tag

company have given up all hope OF his re-

a stale style Of Defamation.

ri H Philadelphia Press published an old
lD1toe Of last August from a custom
1ouDo special agent addressed to the New
YEA collector, relative to the valuation of
oktain lots Of Haviland china, imported
~ +. Strauss Il Sons, of New York, the
Gulioe member Of the firm being our new
'minigeer to Turkey. The publication
ooems to make its appearance with intent
- dispazage him, being accompanied with
~ statement that the domestic china
Mnnufacture and honest importing trade
haSe for q long time been damaged by such
fraudulent practices, which are said to be
w ingenious in their nature.
When, however, the character of this
YlActice comes to be detailed in the letter of
~ special agent, It'll seen that there is no
I NeA1Ege Of fraud in it and that the agent
e1pecially disclaims any imputation against
- honesty of Strauss 4 Sons; his sole
e1aam being that there would be opportunity
~ fraud II valuations were to be made as
& 1hsy claim to have them made in this case.
ltseems that Strauss 4 Sons contracted to
1Ave certain job lots Of china, not generally
0lable, sent to them at different times
during the last year, and stipulated that
theee should be some ten per cent. Of regu-
I 1ar goods sent with them to make them
& nlAble; and thus got their goods at large
\ account, and consequently are entitled to
haye them entered at reduced duty. But
some Of the consignments had seventy per
cent. Of regular goods, which the appraiser
appraised at their full market value. But
Strauss & Son say that is not right, since
( the average Of the consignments Of the
/ special purchase will not contain more thar
the stipulated Quantity Of full value goods
nthat be-, their claim is saltogether honest
t10d6h It Is clear enough that an irrespon
dble house might greatly abuse the conf
dence reposed in it by such manner o
appraising its invoices.
This case is another illustration Of tn
strong disposition of our newspapers t
maze tie broadcast charges upon the nal
rowest proof. The Press tells its reader
that the country's industry has beel
ruined and its honest importers cheated
and all it has to cite in proof is the lette

that an importers claim to certain
method Of appraisement has been denied
not because it is dishonest, but because dis
n honesty would be possible if the practice

\ number OF persons have called nj
this oilic. during the past few weeks
and made inquiry concerning the pro
visions OF the present game law. w
herewith give condensed aceoun, o.
the law rs II now stands:
Bison and mountain goat or ibcS are
protected absolutely for u period Of ten
years; and Rocky Mountain sheep eight
years.
The males Of elk. deer and antelope.
or those which have horns" may lie
killed when needed for immediate use
n, nil times.
The females and Young Of elk shall
not be killcI except during the months
OF October. November and December.
The females OF deer and antelope
shall not bc killed except in the months
of September, October and November.
None Of the game animals mentioned
shall be killed FOR the market u, any
time OF the year.
No edible part of any game animal
shall bc killed for the marac; ut any
time Of the year.
II Is unlawful for any person TO have
in possession any game mentioned eN-
cept when necessary for food for inn
mediate use.
The County Commissioners may ap-
point special wardcns who shall arrest
without warran, aud bring offenders he
fore the nearest justice Of the peace.
The fines and penalties are not less
than SO nor more than 500. for the
first oIcnsc. and for each subsequent
oiicnse the same with imprisonment not
less than 80 nor more than 10 days.
All fines collected as above shall go to
the school fund OF the county where
such onense is committed aud fine is
collected.
The words "for immediate usc," is
what bo,hers most people. Some are
of the opinion that they can kill only
one deer or elk at time. but we take IL
that n ranchmnn or permanent settler
can kill as many ~ he thinks 1t neccs-
sary to last for given period, at this
season. 1t has been the custom among
settlers on White river. heretofore. to
kill enough game in the early par, of
the winter to last them for several
months and we are OF the opinion thai,
there will he no objection to the same
course being pursed this year. provided,
there is no wanton destruction. such as
killing game for the iun of the thing
and bringing in only the hind quarters.
THIS latter class of hunters cannot he
too severely dealt with. The chief aim
of the law is to abolish the professional !
hunter and the fellows whose ouiy oh
jcct is TO see how many they could kill
